New Tech Opportunities in Africa

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are transforming Africa. Across the continent, new startup digital enterprises are emerging, while existing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly leveraging ICTs to expand.

The pace of transformation across Africa, however, is slow and one of the major barriers is poor ICT infrastructure. A number of countries are reaping the benefits of greater digital penetration but others are watching from the sidelines. In Kenya for example, the M-Pesa mobile money disruption has enabled many SMEs to be more efficient.

Man City have a great squad but I don't think they can match up Chelsea's winning mentality. The same applies to Man United, they have had a good couple of preseason games and great league games so far but that won't be enough. Mid way the season, the leaks are more likely to show up for a non consistent starting squad and many games to be played domestically and Europe. Spurs on the other hand still look the great Tottenham from last season but perhaps lack of great impro...
